Carnivore Cheesecake recipe
A rich, creamy, crustless cheesecake made with animal-based ingredients. Optional flavor enhancers include vanilla or cinnamon.
Ingredients:
-
8 oz butter, room temperature (browned butter adds a nutty depth, but regular butter works great too)
-
8 oz cream cheese (1 standard brick), room temperature
-
8 whole eggs
-
(Optional) 1 tsp vanilla extract
-
(Optional) ½ tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Prepare your baking dish:
-
Use a 9-inch round or 8×8-inch square baking dish.
-
Line with parchment paper or lightly grease with butter for easier removal.
-
-
Blend ingredients:
-
In a high-powered blender or food processor, combine:
-
Butter
-
Cream cheese
-
Eggs
-
(Optional) Vanilla and/or cinnamon
-
-
Blend until smooth and fully combined. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure everything is incorporated.
-
-
Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish.
-
Bake for 35–45 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden. (Check around 35 minutes—timing can vary by oven.)
-
Cool:
-
Let cool at room temperature for 30 minutes.
-
Then transfer to the fridge for at least 2 hours to firm up (overnight is best for flavor and texture).
-
-
Serve chilled or at room temperature.
✅ Tips:
-
This cheesecake is crustless, making it great for low-carb and carnivore diets.
-
For a fluffier texture, separate the egg whites, beat them until stiff peaks form, and fold them in at the end before baking (optional step).
-
Can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Would you like a version that’s higher in protein, made in cupcake form, or adjusted for sweeteners like stevia or honey (if not strictly carnivore)?
